Inserting a character at the end of a paragraph IF the next paragraph is a certain style

Hi,
I have found a section of a collegues script that will insert a bullet at the end of a paragraph if the PREVIOUS para is styled with a certain style, I have been trying to modify it to work if the FOLLOWING paragraph is a certain style instead but as I am not sure how the "insertionPoints[f[i].index-1].appliedParagraphStyle.name" part of it is working I have hit a brick wall. Can anyone shed any light on this?
thanks
myDoc = app.activeDocument
// This part checks if "News text para indent" is followed by "News title regular" and inserts a bullet
app.findGrepPreferences = null;
app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "News text para indent";
app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = "^.+$";
f = myDoc.findGrep();
for (i = 0; i < f.length; i++)
var inser= f[i].insertionPoints.length
if (f[i].parentStory.insertionPoints[f[i].index-1].appliedParagraphStyle.name == "News title regular")
var bullet = f[i].parentStory.insertionPoints[f[i].index+inser-1].contents="\u25CF"

OK thanks much,
So to do that, do i begin by highlighting the last frame (the last frame of the movie itself - actual film image) on the timeline, and go to main menu and select Insert>Timeline>Keyframe? Then insert stop(); on the last frame via the actionscript panel?
Then highlight the first frame and insert the setTtimeout() and play() onto the first frame?
I inserted the stop() command on the last frame and the clip now stops...
I tried adding this script on the last frame and clip stops but does not repeat after 5 seconds...
stop()
setTimeout(5)
play();

Ms Excel move automatically without pressing Enter or Tab to the next cell

Hi, I wonder if it is possible to make Ms Excel move automatically without pressing Enter or Tab to the next cell once a certain number of digits is entered, for example, I'm using a barcode scanner to scan a barcode of 13 digits, so I want Excel
to move to the next cell once the barcode is scanned.
example: I'm In cell A1, this code appeared after scanning "AABB1234567CC", I want Excel to move to A2 in order to scan the next barcode.

Hi,
Excel has no direct feature or option to achieve your goal. We'd better try the macro via VBA code to test. Please see the thread:

Strange character at the end of some file/folder names

I'm getting a strange character at the end of some of my file and folder names. This is it:  When I enlarge it, it says "private use" on the top and bottom, "E000" on the left side, and "F8FF" on the right side. It acts like a character within the font, but I'm not sure why it's there.
In case that didn't work, I'm going to try to attach or embed a gif of the character. I'm not sure if it will work or not.
Also, some longer file names seem to be dleeting some of the letters and are inserting a pound sign and a few numbers (e.g. #34) in place of the letters.
What's going on?
As usual, thanks in advance,
Lloyd

I thought that might be it...at first. Then I found some file names that were nowhere near 32 characters long whose names were truncated.
It's not a huge problem, except in QuarkXPress when I collect the files for output and I have to reconnect to the ones whose names have been changed (to protect the innocent, I suppose).
Thanks for the input mark.

Is it possible to export to PDF without a Return character at the end of every line?

I am the author of a book whose first edition has been typeset and extensively amended in InDesign. I now need to rewrite the first edition to produce a second edition.
When I copy-and-paste from the PDF with which the publisher has supplied me into MS Word, I get a Return character at the end of every line, which means that text doesn’t automatically wrap and sentences are fragmented so that I get spurious grammar errors.
I know that not all PDF files have a Return at the end of every line. Is it possible to restrict Returns to the end of paragraphs when exporting from InDesign to PDF? If so, what should the publisher be asking the typesetter to do?

Thanks for your lightning-swift and helpful replies, Mike & Ellis.
I don't have InDesign myself, so I know hardly anything about how it's used. I'm just trying to research what an internationally-known publisher should already know how to do, but apparently doesn't!
Following your suggestion, Mike, I have downloaded the trial version of Acrobat and exported the PDF to a Word file. This has been moderately successful as there are far fewer spurious Return characters, just a few that I suspect may be hangovers from the typesetter having introduced soft returns in ID.
As you've suggested Peter and Ellis, I'll suggest that the publisher asks the typesettter to export from ID to RTF and Text to see if that's even better.

How do I insert Greek characters from the character viewer in Lion?

In Lion, the Character Viewer shows many more options for different characters than SL. Of course, it displays Latin, but, as I scientist I often need to insert Greek characters, but I cannot find Greek characters in the Character Viewer. I don't otherwise need to select Greek as a language. Inserting Greek characters from some applications like MS Word still works.
And ... while I'm here ... what happened to the "insert" button? -j

Click the gear icon to edit your list:
Select Customize List:

How do I insert a page in the middle of a section in iBook. The insert always puts it at the end of the section.

I am writing an iBook, and I need to insert a page in the middle of the section without disrupting the layouts on the following pages. I keep trying to insert, but it always sticks a new page at the end of the section. Is there any way to add a page, or move pages around in an iBook?

Using the thumbnail view on the left, select the page you want a new one after, then right click and choose 'Insert Page'....that should do it.

How to insert a character and paragraph break at the beginning of a paragraph using Grep

Dear Community!
I am stucked...
I have several books in indesign, which I want to export into epub. I have a standardized procedure, to be able to assign the task to students.
My problem i I have a paragraph style 'heading2' and I would like to insert a paragraph break before which is styled 'new page'.
Here is the theory I have thought about:
-with find and change find the style 'heading2'
-insert a special character + paragraph break before the first character of the paragraph
-with a second find and change find the special character
-replace with nothing and style with 'new page'
My question is how to insert with grep (?) before the first character anything.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance

Look in the flyout panel of your Paragraph panel.

"\" Character at the end of alias source in databas

Recently our application developer team faces a problem with crystal report v.14.0 (2011). They require to place “\“character at the end of alias source in database and there are no other character to replace the backslash. All the clients that do the designing, operate on x64 bit operating system (windows 7_x64) and this version of crystal report replaces “ \” with “ _ “ character.
We recently found a patch file that in the following registry category fixes the mentioned issue only in 32bit operating systems but no solution can be found so far for 64bit OS.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\SAP BusinessObjects\Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\Database]
"InvalidAliasCharList"="!(){}"
As the demands in the market force us to move to 64bit OS versions, finding a solution for this issue is crucial and we require your assistant to solve this subject.

Ftp/xml: @ character at the end

I receive a file from an AS/400 machine. The process is as follows: AS/400 generates an xml file. It ftps the file to a folder location. Biztalk uses the file adapter to pick this up.
The weird thing that's happening is that the AS/400 generates a proper xml file. But when the AS/400 ftps this file to a Windows, it appends a bunch of @ characters at the end. Does somebody have an explanation? Additionally, can I workaround with this in
Biztalk?

Never seen a case when files from AS/400 had ‘@’ in it. Even you have secured ftp (FTP-S), the chances for some character to be appended at the
end is less. I have seen BOM (Byter Order Marks) which appear at the beginning of the file content as opposed to end of the file content. Just to remove the probability of this problem due
to “secured” part of ftp, drop (or ask the hosting team) the file manually at the ftp folder and see what comes to BizTalk. Just remove AS/400 from the picture and drop the file manually to see whether is it due to the end
system (AS/400) to due to any process in the transportation (network infrastructure) add this extra character at the end of the file.
If it’s the problem due to the source system (AS/400) or infrastructure, try to resolve the problem at their end, if not only solution is to use the custom receive pipeline component to remove the any additional characters from
the file.

BOX character at the end of line when file transferred from SAP to WINDOWS

Hi,
We have a file interface program which creates a comma seperated '.txt' file in application server. Once it is created in application server in provided path an UNIX script runs which transfers this file from SAP application server to a network drive in WINDOWS platform. This file looks fine when opened through WINSCP from SAP application server but when checked the file in network drive opened with note pad, it found each line come at the end of another line seperated by 'BOX' character.
If we opened the file in word pad instead of note pad it looks fine.
If any one of you have any idea to resolve this issue it will be a great help.
Thanks,
Ranadev

Hi Ranadev,
This happens because when you transfer the file to the Windows platform using the UNIX script it removes uses only a newline character at the end of each line instead of the Windows platform standard which is carriage return/newline. The Notepad program displays this character alone as the box that you see. If you want to verify take the same program and convert to Windows format using Notepad++ and you'll see that the same file then displays properly in Notepad.

How do I include the End of Paragraph character with the other characters in a GREP definition?

I have a character style that changes the line spacing. The GREP definition that applies it is a period. This selects everything bu t the Endo of Paragrpah character (EOP). The result is that the entire paragraph reformats but the last line of text has the wrong spacing.
I am new to GREP and have not yet found a way to include the EOP character in the change. I have tried the statement : .*$ but that has no affect.

JES5910 wrote:
Try defining a paragraph style with a smaller font and leading size then the default style and apply it to the pragraph using GREP definition of a period (all characters).
That's exactly what I did. I started with 12/14 and changed to to a style using 8/9. Everything changed.
There is no need to select all the text in a paragraph to assign a paragraph style since the style is aparagraph level attribute. You cannot have more than one paragraph style applied to a single paragraph, so it is IMPOSSIBLE that the end of paragraph marker has a different paragraph style applied than the rest of the paragraph. It IS possible, however, to apply a different character style or local formatting to it (and that's one reason it's better to use a triple-click instead of dragging to select an entire paragraph), so if the last line is not picking up the corrct spacing, the EOP character is either character styled or locally formatted.
The only way you would know if this is the case is by selecting the EOP character, either as part of the entire paragraph, or by itself. If the paragraph style is then listed with a plus sign, there's local formatting applied. If not, check the character styles panel and I think you'll see a character style applied there (it would say mixed if you've selected the entire paragraph, unless of course you've applied the same character style to everything, which would be a major mistake).
You can use GREP to remove the character style, if that's what it is, by searching for \r and in the change format set the character styel to [None]. This would work for all paragraphs regardless of waht the leading should be. If the incorrect specification is a local format, however, you would have to either select all text and remove local formatting (which might remove somethign you want, as well) or set up GREP searches to look for the \r with the correct paragraph style in the find formatting, then change the leading explicitly for that style inthe change formatting.

Mail compose window jumps to back when adding address. As soon as I add a single character to the address window of a new mail message, it pops under all other existing windows. If I have others open...and who doesn't? I have to then close them all.

So.....deeply....disappointed by Lion...
It honestly gets in the way of getting things done.
When was the last time you had an upgrade, in any program or OS that caused an immediate productivity drop?
Mail windows, when adding a new address, pop under to become the lowest window in the stack...before you are done composing...
no extra clicks..just adding ONE character to the actual address bar does it.
Trying to add files to an online content management system is hard...it's hard because when you attempt to add the file, it disappears from
the list, so a search must be conducted...oh not a search of your hard drive...no...it has to include ALL FILES and that takes a while, showing
files totally unrelated to what you need or in whatever that view is, showing everything from movies to documents, to a whole range of other stuff
that is irrelevant to what is being sought.
I can get used to the disappearing icon tool bar...but the message threading in Mail is so strangely bad it's hard to describe. So you send out an email,
and it had 5 points...but that was 3 emails before...A reply comes in addressing those 5 points but saying something like ..."I disagree with point number 4"
Unless you have total recall the thread shows you only incoming mail and the LAST most recent folded up message you sent. You are forced to go digging
into sent mail to see what that point you made 8 days eariler actually was...
I am pleased that I don't have to have Launchpad (honestly the silliest 'feature' I've ever seen on a computer) in the dock and see no point in the juvenile Mission Control (the naming scheme is odd and reminiscent of Junior Spaceman...how ironic that we end America's manned launch capability at the same time as Launch Pad and Mission Control, both throwbacks to the 60's are added to an OS). In any case both are virtually useless tools. One, replacing the mildly useful Spaces and the other just genuinely useless.
I'm going to give Apple until the second bug fix...but I can tell right now that Snow Leopard was a far more robust OS. The thousands of posts about this may rise to the level of AntennaGate...I hope so...It seems the only way to get Steve (for whom I have now honestly lost respect for the FIRST TIME) to address the issues is to embarrass the company publicly. Lion is a broken system, poorly conceived...and proof that the Apple methodology of no widespread user testing can and does fail. This needs to get fixed. Soon.

It seems to have something to do with profile manager.

L need help with textedit, I inserted a picture then the cursor went from small to the size of picture and l need to write a header next to the picture not at the bottom of it. can anyone help please?

Can anyone tell me how to make cursor smaller after inserting picture so that l can add somethimg right next to it instead of bottom of picture. Meaning the next line is too low

AFAIK, you can't. The nature of TextEdit is that it allows the picture to be treated as a character and adjusts the cursor size for that line.
You need a app that supports transparent overlays.
